Portable health records for Ghana

One record. Every hospital. Zero re-entry.

In Ghana, your medical history doesn't follow you between hospitals. KapiCare gives every patient a single record that travels with them — retrieved at intake by scanning a Ghana Card, so a clinician sees allergies, medications and prior visits in seconds.

AI summary · verify against record

Penicillin allergy. On metformin since 2024. Treated for typhoid at Ridge, Mar 2026 — recurring fever since.

The problem

Records don't follow patients between hospitals.

When a patient treated at Korle Bu walks into Ridge, the new clinician starts from zero. The information exists — it just can't travel.

Systems that don't talk

Ghana's national systems — DHIMS and LHIMS — were built facility-first, not patient-first. A record created at one hospital stays locked inside it.

History re-told from memory

At every new facility the patient re-supplies allergies, medications and past treatment from memory — if they can recall them at all.

Dangerous blind spots

A clinician prescribing without a full allergy and drug history risks anchoring on the wrong picture. The gap is a patient-safety problem.

Only 54.9% of Ghanaian clinicians report readiness for electronic records — so the answer has to be simpler, not heavier.

Capture once, everywhere

Three steps at the point of care.

Deliberately boring: deterministic, consent-gated and fast. No new workflow to learn.

Scan the Ghana Card

At intake, the clinician scans the patient's Ghana Card or a QR code. Identity is verified against the NHIS link before anything is shown.

The patient grants consent

No record opens without a current consent grant. The patient decides which facility can see their history — and can revoke it any time.

The full record appears

Allergies, medications, chronic conditions and every prior visit — consolidated across facilities, in under 30 seconds, on two screens.

What KapiCare does

Built patient-first, safe by construction.

The safety-critical paths — identity, consent, retrieval — are deterministic and auditable. AI is layered on top, and fully removable.

A record that travels

One consolidated passport of allergies, medications, chronic conditions and every visit — owned by the patient, not the facility. It follows them, not the building.

Consent you control

Every grant has a revoke. No facility sees a record without a current, patient-given grant — enforced structurally, not by policy.

AI summary, clearly labeled

A 3-line, safety-first summary sits above the full record — always labeled, never a replacement. If the AI is down, the record still loads.

Ghana Card native

Identity verified against the NHIS link at intake.

Offline-first

Retrieves and saves through patchy connectivity — nothing lost.

AMR & outbreak signals

Anonymized, aggregate trends for GHS and Africa CDC.

Trust & consent

Quiet trust over hype.

The Ghana Card carries your identity. KapiCare is the companion that carries your health — adopted, not mandated.

Patient-controlled by design

No facility gives up its data — the patient grants access. That sidesteps the institutional wall that stalled every shared-record attempt before.

Deterministic & auditable

Consent, identity and retrieval never touch AI. Every access is logged. Boring on purpose — because trust is the product.

Built for Act 843

Architected for Ghana's Data Protection Act 2012, with an isolated consent service and anonymization before any analytics.
